GCU aims to break the all-time series tie between the two programs on Saturday. The matchup with the Lancers will be GCU's second WAC game and fourth for the Lancers.

THREE THINGS TO KNOW

PAINT IT PURPLE: Senior Da'jah Daniel and freshman Mae Bryant are stepping it up in the paint. Daniel leads the WAC with 9.9 rebounds per game and has added six double-doubles. Bryant had a breakout game against CSU Bakersfield with a season-high 15 points in 19 minutes off the bench.
LONG DISTANCE: While the Lopes went 0 for 7 in their last game from 3-point range, GCU still leads the WAC from behind the arc by shooting 37% from long range.
SPLIT: GCU and CBU each won a game on its home court in last year's first WAC meetings between the teams.

SCOUTING

California Baptist tied CSU Bakersfield with a conference-high eight nonconference wins. The Lancers opened WAC play with losses at New Mexico State (57-56) and UT Rio Grande Valley (87-68).

CBU played No. 3 Stanford tight in a preseason game, losing 83-78 in Victoria, British Columbia.

Senior guard Lexy Ram leads the Lancers with 11.4 points per game and junior guard Ane Olaeta, a Spain native like GCU's Laura Piera and Carla Balague, adds 11.3 points per game.
